I got same phone and same ROM and you can't choose default installation place, because S3 has internal storage for apps.
Maybe some notes from my experience will helps to you:
1. Not enough space error - this error causing not only when you have few storage space, this error may cause when not enough space in cache, where play store downloading updates/new apps before install. So in such situation any cleaner will helps to you, i'm using SD Maid Pro, but free Clean Master on any other cleaner will be useful
2. If you will install lot of heavy apps (Like i do) - you will always suffer from a lack of free space, so you need something to move heavy data from phone storage to SD-card - my choice was Folder Mount, that moved android\data and android\obb to sd-card but you can link absolutely any folders in internal card to SD.
3. Abut updates it is not clearely, can you provide more info about your phone, what update you trying to install and some logs/screenshots/description about error in installation?
Same problemo
i had the same problem once with stock 4.3 but now am in a custom ROM no problemo now

I have a rooted HTC Aria running CM 7. I tried downloading Google Maps, but get this error: "There is insufficient space on the device". There is only 139 MB on the phone, even after I moved several apps to the sd card, but the card has over 6 GB free, and isn't that where downloads go?

that would be a no they go to the phone first then you can move it to the sd, so how much free memory do you have on the phone?
Google Maps only takes about 11MB, so if you have more than that free, I don't know why you'd get that message.
139 mb free on the phone

It's a fresh install. Haven't been able to dl Gmaps since the rooting and upgrade to CM7
I am having the same issue with multiple apps on the official marketplace. i however dont have any problems when downloading apps from the amazon market. i have android 2.3.4 installed via cm 7.1.o-rc1-liberty. any help would be great.
You could try downloading the APK here, transferring to SD, then install with a file explorer.

This is a memory problem related to the app download cache allocated with CM7. A good remedy and a good way to dramatically increase your phone's storage memory:
- download and use Rom Manager to create a partition on the sd card. (This erases the sd card so back it up first.)
- download and run S2S to move cache and program files to the sd card partition. This program tricks the phone to use the sd card as additional memory. It also creates a larger application download cache so you will have no problem downloading Google Maps. It only works with CM7.

What is S2S? How different is it from the DT app2sd??
S2E is what he meant. It is the same thing as DT's apps2sd, but it only works with CM7. It's much easier to use S2E than DT's.
Sent from my Aria using XDA Premium App
yeah, s2e is awesome, its running great, with no lag. I have been using it for about 3 months now with no problems. even with around 130 apps I still have the available storage of 160mb. I have moved all my apps and dalvik cache to sd. it was so easy to set up. I used rom manager and CWR to partition my sd to 512mb with swap disable, re-flash cm7 and restore my backup, done. I did try mounting my sd with ext4 but it was a little buggy so I re formatted and went back.
Hi,
I have an Xperia Play.
However, I am always running out of space on my internal storage...but I don't know why.
I am rooted with with both Titanium & App2SD installed.
I have very few apps installed and nearly all of them have been moved to my SD card. Yet I only have around 40mb free on my internal storage (from a total of 400mb).
I cannot figure out what is using all of my internal space. I have looked in Titanium at apps using my interal storage and it does not even come close to the 350mb it says I am using.
What could be using all this space and is there any way to find out for sure?
Thanks!
Its the app data and the dalvik cache.
Have u heard of partitioning and s2e?
move app data and dalvik cache to sd ext. that gives u more internal memory.

Hi, I think it's useless to open another thread about same "issue".
I have an Xperia Ray and with only 400Mo in internal storage it's not easy to install all that I want.
I moved all app to SD when possible, made some of them system app with TB, cleaned cache and data when possible.
My Ray (updated to ICS) is rooted and I installed the nAa's CWM 5.0.2.7 "recovery".
What is needed to partioning the sd card ? Is this possible with a locked bootloader ?

U can do it with a locked bootloader. Normally I would advise u use s2e but that wouldn't work on ICS.
Here's how u partition
Backup ur SD card
Boot into recovery
Select advanced
Partition SD card option
Select a size : recommended 1024
Select swap as 0. (32 if gaming)
Reboot
However u will need an app to move the stuff to the partition. Try link2sd
u can partition via recovery or via PC. try ad2sdx by amarullz for sd ext @babylonbwoy, are u wid stock kernel, cos these a2sd things are kernel related. and i dont think stock kernels support it.

Thanks guys.
Right...so I looked into what you were saying.
I ended up partitioning 1GB of my SD card and using it with Link2SD.
Everything was great, it created loads of space on my internal storage.
BUT...then I rebooted my phone.
After a lengthy 5 minutes boot up, I was presented with error upon error. I now have no space on my internal storage and the secondary partition on my SD card is all used up too...I guess Link2SD has somehow failed.
Any ideas?
do one thing just back up all the apps then reboot recovery n flash a stock rom with 2.3.6 xxkph/ddkq6 baseband n dnt use app 2 sd jus use stock app2sd given in manage applications........ good day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ur space will increaseor jus use optimizer 15 tools ..... pro version its an better option!!!!!!!!!!!!!choose what ever u like..................
Sorry for using same thread Red_Kop...

I tried with Rom Manager option "partition sd card", it didn't work. I had choice between 128MB-256MB-512MB (choosed 512) and swap size I choosed 0 and after 32Mb, but none worked. After rebooting everything was the same.
Then I tried rebooting recovery and setting size myself but it didn't work too.
U can't just do that. You have to use an app to move the data to the memory card. Try s2e if ur on gingerbread or link2sd if on ICS
Ok, I'm on ICS, thought that I have to prepare sd card before moving things.
I'm a total noob when it come to android, only few weeks using it.
First partition via clockwork, then install link2sd.
Link2sd will give u a move to SD option
Hey everyone,
Very recently, my rooted P769 on Jellybean (20f) isn't letting me install any applications because there is no free space. But that isn't true - I have 560 MB free on my internal SD! At first I was down to about 150 MB free, but I couldn't install any applications then, so I deleted some applications and cleared some data so now I have about 560 MB free, but I still can't install one small 5 MB application! I haven't done any app2sd (I only have 2 GB free on my external SD so there would be no point anyways). I also have CWM recovery 6 by artas but I haven't installed anything with it recently. Any help? Maybe there is a way to modify build.prop to allocate more space for application data?
Any help would be really appreciated, because I can't install any application on my phone right now.

Try checking your clockworkmod/backup folder on your internal sd card. if you have one or two in there it will make a difference. Transfer those files to your SD card. Sounds like you need a new sd card as well. Get a 16gb one from Wal-Mart for like $15! Once you get your new SD Card then follow this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44683922#post44683922

I don't think you understand my problem. I have 560 MB of free space on my internal SD, but I can't install any applications because every time I try I get an error that I don't have enough space, regardless of the size of the application. I should be able to install a 5 MB application if I have more than 5 MB of free space. I have a 32 GB class 10 external SD card (and I have a couple CWM backups on it) but it's almost full so doing Link2SD isn't realistic, not to mention the many problems that Link2SD has been known to cause. If somebody has had this problem before, where they definitely have enough free space to install applications but their phone tells them they do not, I'd appreciate some assistance.

I had this problem once, I've read that that the system could not remove an app or something, sorry but the only way I fixed was by restoring a cwm backup. I spent a good while trying to solve it, but nothing I found worked.

I had this problem with a different phone once, when I believe I tried to install and uninstall the same app for a lot of times, it finally refused to do so. End up flash the whole ROM.
You could try uninstalling the last few apps you installed or fix permissions before you dump the rom

I hope that your 5mb application is not TitanBackup and you are not having LuckyAbcxyz in your phone! If you do, that's the source of your problem, and you can see if all the time and troubles you got worth the pirated stuffs...
If u are using remount SD to switch ur ext sd with ur internal SD then u need to make a folder called external_SD in ur sdcard0 folder after u use remountsd to switch storage.. if not, then I say u need to use remountsd and use jb settings to change ur storage.. if u want I can link u to the instructions post of remount SD
Sent from my LG-P769 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Download remountsd and OPEN it.. (must have root) click on the wrench settings icon and input these mounts to their respected places
JB Settings:
Interne SD - /storage/Sdcard0
External SD - /storage/Sdcard0/external_sd
Target external SD card - /storage/sdcard0
Reboot ur phone and when finished media scanning go to ur storage and see the changes. I've experienced if problem before and I had to not only hard reset the phone I also had to flash a cwm backup stock of my current Rom
IF remountsd doesn't work right away u need a fresh install of Rom THEN try remountsd. Remountsd is a Definite for switching storages

alright guys i brief it out...
1. i wanted to run NFS MW game in my phone, but it requires 2055 MB data to be stored and accessed via phone internal memory
2. so i root my phone to swap memory, so that my 8GB memory card can act as internal memory to serve the purpose..
3. swapping memories went successful but still game gave me same error that 2055MB needs to be downloaded but 0MB storage is available in your phone, clean some memory and try again.
4. then i created a 3.5GB partition out my 8gb card hoping it may work (also used an app Link2SD) but the problem still persist.
please suggest me how to proceed?

Bro, it seems you are running jellybean 4.1.2 on your phone. That's why it still uses your internal memory as your default memory. Rather than doimd all the tedious work of swapping memory and partitioning, it would be much better if you just upgrade your phone to stock Jellybean 4.2.1 which is the official version released by micromax. The tutorials are extensively present both in xda and YouTube. By doing so, Jellybean 4.2 by default takes your ext.SD card as your your default memory( there's an option under Settings > Storage to click on your preferred default memory. Just click ext.SD card and your job will be done! You can download any heavy games like NFS MW or FIFA or anything. You won't have any memory issues again!
Hope this helped you. Don't forget to hit the thanks button

My S2 is running on Dirty Unicorns 4.4.2 previously I had cm10.1 jelly bean. After a few days after flashing the KitKat ROM I noticed I can't update my Facebookapp it started showing 'insufficient storage place ' .I cleaned all cache files of all my apps using app cache cleaner still the problem persists.
I also removed dumpstate files using terminal emulater still no change.I uninstalled all my apps.And i can't download anything.Although I suspect one thing I used Super Backup to restore all my apps after flashing the new ROM.
please help I am a noob.
